Not sure on mods yet, probably tinted sidemarkers to start and eventually a splitter and side skirts. We're in a winter storm currently, so I have a few months to figure things out before it gets to see daylight. For now, just waxing and trying to learn the ins and outs by reading the forums.

I was open to 2LT/3LT, but knew I had to have the red interior. Comp seats were just a bonus!
